Vicki ~ were you able to walk back to Stovall's this year or did you have to go all the way around this year again?

FYI I found my video! If you click on "View and Order" on the digital products that pop up "Memory CD with video" you can "preview your video clips". Click the little link

Yes !!!! Once we finally asked "how to" it was easy and quick. I have to say they really worked the kinks out.

In the morning it was SO easy and fast. Not that I got more sleep due to the location....I was up at 2:30 since I was just not sleeping.

Congrats on your C2C

Its been four days now and I am still in shock that this actually happened:

ETA: Concerning MarathonFoto, give them a few days. I know from past races that use them that they have a certain pattern that is a bit odd but its how they do things apparently. They always send an email out the day the photos first go online. Even if not all the photos are not up yet. Everything will go up in time. Also make ABSOLUTELY certain you don't have any photos in the LOST and FOUND section under partial matches. I have been able to track down a few photos via that section before. Usually its because me or my bib were in an odd position to the photographer and they weren't able to identify the runner. As I said before usually its only a few photos but make sure to check.

ETA 2: Also check to make sure you don't have anything listed under professional alignment photos. I just discovered about another dozen photos of my finish under there.

Oh and concerning other people in your photos. If you aren't anywhere in the photos there is a remove option on the photo to have it taken off your page. Sometimes they mix up bibs.

That's sooooo GREAT!!!! Awesome memory- great picture!

does anyone have a castle pic?

Boy I already miss the weather....we're due for rain any time now.

Is anyone else NOT impressed with the photo company this year ???? I have about 4 strangers in my "photo" album and I'm not even in those pictures. I swear about 1/2 the time I saw the photo guys they were doing something with their equipment, talking or doing something else than taking the photos.

I'm also surprised there was not video like last year.

Just wondering what everyone else thought ???

No castle, no finish line, no characters, though we stopped for tons with photogs. I'm pretty annoyed. I stopped on purpose to get a ton if pics- and like 5 of them. Annoyed for sure.

I saw more pictures of me, including my finish line ones. It looks like they are slowly being added. I also found my finish line video. Is that the only video?

I have a couple more pictures of "strangers" added to my list

The finish line is the only video I have so far. Still no castle shots.

Yes, they did work the kinks out! I have to say that I now think Tink 2013 has been my favorite race.

I'm with you on that !!! It was great !!!

No Cars Land photos either.

Did you get into Marri's ??? We were there for lunch on Saturday and they said they have been turning people away for reservations for days. So I guess we will stick to having a pre-race lunch there always instead of dinner. We love that place and they are always so nice.

Awesome freaking picture, awesome. I am jealous

Thanks for your tips about the photos. BUT I had a great high five moment with Minnie at the finish, still no picture, it was a clear line of sight to camera. Unfortunately, I didn't have anyone at the finish line.

Still hoping it will show up.

longhorns2 · 01-23-2013, 10:08 PM

Loved Marri's! Went there on Thur night and really enjoyed the meal. Great suggestion!

A few more pictures showed up for me- but no castle, no carsland... fingers crossed they show up.

Tink is my favorite race between PHM and Tink. I am a FAN!

longhorns2 · 01-23-2013, 10:09 PM

BTW, just noticed my Ticker automatically reset to count down for next year. Thinking I'll keep that... if it's in the ticker, it must be true, right?

IMGONNABE40! · 01-23-2013, 10:36 PM

Oh yes....thanks for the heads up on Marri's, Vicki. We had a late dinner there Friday night-plenty of tables. I had rigatoni with the fra diavlo sauce with a side of meatballs. I had leftovers after the race and again on Monday night. Defiantly will go there again if we return to DL.

Glad you liked it. I wish I had some of their food right now.
